Retired rice, wheat, prime lamb farmer interested in irrigated Ag and saving the planet from destruction. And motorcycles keep you sane in an insane world.
I caught this one crossing the widest Main Street in NSW(Trundle) a couple of weeks ago . I think he was looking for termites in the dead shops across the street .

SBS on demand has made its app so older tvs don’t handle the app, our 2017 lg oled tv isn’t compatible with the upgraded app. We can watch sbs on demand via our Apple TV.

On a ride today out the back of Sydney into the Yango national park I saw 6 lyre birds and 2 brush turkeys, a bit of a record for me, normally only see about 2 lyre bird per ride out there. And a freshly marked bit of rock carving , being highlighted before some track upgrades for the RFS.

You can be a long way from everything in the Australian bush. Water is the first thing I think about carrying out here, tools and always extra fuel.

I have some very innovative farmer friends and they are often the first into new ag industries , they would be into hemp production in a flash if it was as profitable as there present water use crops. They have built the infrastructure needed for their present crops but hemp doesn’t-cut it yet.

It makes a lot more sense to grow rice and cotton than crops such as almonds, walnuts and grapes for wine. The tree crops use up to heaps more water / ha than rice and cotton and they need the water in a drought where rice and cotton are only grown when there is plentiful water.

Al on the dr and I did about 400ks today out of Sydney to some aboriginal rock carvings in Yengo NP . Devils rock. Some great rugged steep hills with lots of sandstone steps.

With the farm in super, there’s not going to be enough cash generated to pay a 5% pension anyway. And small parts of the farm can’t be sold off like shares or etf’s. About $250,000 a year pension payment on $5000000.
